It was considerably more complicated than that - the company that put them up for sale did so legally in the country they were in. The real error they made was in claiming in their marketing blitz when they first released Kindles that they couldn't remotely delete stuff you'd bought (and not having it spelled out exactly when they would in their TOS).
